1. Max is given the cold shoulder in EastEnders spoilers
Following the events of Christmas, the Beales and the Branning try to move forward. As they plan Jimmy’s christening, Lauren and Peter try to navigate the first meeting of Max and Cindy.
After deciding to uninvite Max, Lauren has second thoughts when he buys Jimmy a thoughtful gift. Warming to her dad, she re-invites him to the christening, against Peter’s wishes.
Cindy refuses to go if Max will be there but, after Jack drops another Max-shaped bombshell, it’s not long before he’s uninvited again anyway.

Ignoring Lauren’s warning, Max decides to attend the christening anyway. As the congregation gather at the jaw, all involved reel in shock as Max comes sauntering through the doors.
Coming face-to-face at last, a brutal confrontation ensues between Max and Cindy.
What has Max done now?
3. Max tries to make amends
After the christening, Oscar attempts to give Max a pep talk to right his wrongs. However, moody Max isn’t in the mood for advice, and heads to Harry’s Barn to drown his sorrows.
At Harry’s Barn, another resident attempts to guide Max, but he snaps back and upsets them in the process. Having watched the entire sorry affair, Nicola delivers Max some home truths about his behaviour, and he heads out into the night in an attempt to right his wrongs.
Later, Max asks Oscar for help to set up a secret meeting with Lauren in The Vic, which he reluctantly accepts.
